The men were confronted by store employees who asked them for ID, police said, but the men refused and demanded the return of the credit cards.

The robbers then made off with the bag of gift cards the clerk had already activated, police said.

The men fled in a white Chevrolet Impala sedan, which Richland Township police stopped around 11:25 a.m. on Route 309 near Pumping Station Road.

The two occupants in the car were identified as the men involved in the robbery, and police took them into custody.

The men were identified as 19-year-old Durwood Elliot Vanlue, of the 5900 block of Spring Street, Philadelphia, and 19-year-old Jihad Lee Smith, of the 5100 block of Hadfield Street, also in Philadelphia.
